I called this a confirmation not evidence. Obviously, it would fall 
under the rubric of "Confirmation Bias". I agree --already from the 
text-- that Silk is the son of Typhon. But I think the textual evidence 
that he is a CLONE of Typhon is much stronger.

But the article I quoted implies why the name Pas was chosen as Typhon's 
Whorl personality. Silk is built on Aristaeus and therefore 
Typhon-on-the-Whorl was based on Pan. As both were names for the same 
entity but different ancestries and acts.
